Yes, last time one checked bidding was higher for dryer than washer. Funny that....

Units went for more than one thought would. Congrats to winning bidder or bidders. Do hope one person nabbed both so washer and dryer can remain a mated set.

Is it still a thing in Europe? Are the machines ever going to make it to this side of the pond?

Am not surprised that ironer is still there, not much demand for them really. Well maybe the larger European rotary irons such as those from Miele, AEG, etc...

Image 0309 That's a rotary ironer (in cabinet) underneath whatever they've piled on top.

Around here people just rubbish things and once out on curb they usually don't remain long. Could sit down and weep over things one has passed over... Nice Miele W3033 washer and mated dryer. Very nice bits of old solid furniture such as desks, book cases, dining room furniture, various small...

Boil washes really aren't required any longer. A good activated oxygen bleaching system will give same results in terms of stain removal, sanitizing and so forth at 140F or maybe 170F as any boil wash, this while saving tons of energy. In Germany, land long known for boil washing average...

My older Miele W1070 will do boil washes even if connected to 120v power. Would likely take ages to get there from tap cold water, but still there you are. Thing is unlike my more modern AEG Lavamat machines the Miele's aren't bothered if water temperature is already warm or hot and machine...
